Coup dโ€™รฉtat 9a (8c+) by Nigel Armino

Nigel Armino skips 8c+ and does his first 9a (8c+), Coup dโ€™รฉtat in Fleron. "6 sessions (around 25-30 tries including warmup/checking out the moves etc..). For sure my hardest route to date. 20 moves power endurance. Grade wise I would say soft 9a or veeeeeeryyy hard 8c+.... But I can't really tell. It was great to put some time in a route at my limit and to see the progression. I never had that feeling before in a route where I had to do everything perfectly. Click here to go to the video."
